About GHRI Ratings

X

Good Housekeeping Research Institute (GHRI) ratings are based on laboratory tests conducted by our scientists at the U.S.'s foremost consumer products evaluation laboratory, and incorporate consumer feedback. GHRI is situated on the 29th floor of the Hearst Tower in New York City and is staffed by chemists, engineers, nutritionists, textile specialists, culinary experts, and other scientists.

Using state-of-the-art equipment, GHRI experts test consumer products — from microwaves to mascaras — for their performance, safety, and, with the help of volunteer testers, ease of use.

Established in 1900, before there was a Federal Drug Administration or a Federal Trade Commission, GHRI has always been the most trusted source consumers can rely on to choose products that are safe and effective.

The GE Caf CGS980SEM6SS offers a lot of the features of professional-styled ranges for less. The oven converts temperatures automatically for convection baking and roasting and comes with a temperature probe — it turned out excellent cakes in GHRI tests. The burners heat very evenly too. To keep kids from fiddling with the stovetop controls you can lock them, a unique function among gas ranges.
